The German Museums Association released the second version of the “#Guidelines for German #Museums. Care of #Collections from #Colonial #Contexts”. But as the press release reads, a third version will follow, since it is a process, not a fixed statement: https://t.co/O8QjjetW0Y

Discussing about #museums and #stereotypes means also envisioning boundaries and opportunities for the future of this institution: relevant #questions (such as the ones about #art museums suggested by @SandroSdebono) can help. https://t.co/1gF1oOb89P

Are we ready to manage #controversial contents in #museums? Whatever your idea, here is an interesting resource based on best practices for "transforming controversy into a #learning moment about the nature of #diverse #opinions" https://t.co/XXJGnDmXd2

#Climate #change: left stands for before, right for after.

When a Marvel film scene is shot in a #museum, it certainly means that something crucial is happening in the field.

Is grey the new pink? Who helps us imagine and shape our #future, in a moment when the biological and epistemological paradigm has changed dramatically?

#Museums, maybe.

For many people and minority groups "their unique experience of the world requires adjustments to be made so that they can navigate the architecture, technology and the tools created, almost entirely, by the majority group". https://t.co/YCQ5LUquWT

A (new) star is born!
One of the most recent cultural institutions born in Milan, yet already at the core of the artistic agenda, is the #icamilano
We will stay at #ICA on October 20th, last day of the @musestereotypes fully dedicated to prototyping solutions.
